DS #3541: PokÃmon Platinum (USA)

[Kyoton]

Platinum has more then D/P. It is the third of the generation. This game changes competitive battling.

sorry for being a noob, but what's the difference between this and D/P?

I'm hoping someone has luck with this as I had none.
I own Pearl and would be Platinum if I could transfer my save file to it. I tried transferring my Pearl save file to a JPN Platinum rom but nothing went over except for I think things like money, trainer id, etc. My name didn't go (it was in English, probably wow) and I had no save data, pokemon, etc. I guess I'll try later with the English version. I seriously do not feel like playing this all over. It would be nice to just transfer save files between games.

Modified storyline, e.g. gyms are in slightly different order, enhanced battle scene (poke mon move more apparently)
Extra content regarding wifi, differently obtained legtendaries and new formes, most importantly for me, catch giratina before the end of the storyline at level 49.

Definately worth a try if you've stuck with pokemon since it came out, or just getting into it.
personally I spent about 150 hours on diamong (bought it for once

) I can see myself putting 50+ extra ours into this in competetive battling and such, so yeh gicve it a try

Can someone get the names for all the frontier brains in the battle frontier, as well as facilities just in case they've changed? IM me or post here.

Can't find it on usenet with filename "xpa-ppu"...

Can I use my JAP platinium savegame with this US release?

 

[Zyenet]

Most likely, yes, as you could with DP

 

[Gaisuto]

Japanese saves work with the English game, I'm using mine right now.

 

[Kyoton]

You could use japanese files with english?

Haven't played a Pokemon game since G/S
Gonna try this one, hopefully it's good.

How many pokemon are in this?

If you're going to try and crash the forum with an influx of visitors (despite the fact GameFreak has just been releasing the same game over and over with no only insignificant changes between versions), at least wait until the game's really available. Oh well, I guess at least this means a modified, usable version of PokeSav will be released so people can stare at what random numbers they've achieved (which is just an observational statement, and not a sarcastic criticism of that utility).

This games actually hard! Spam attacks against your rival and you WILL lose.

 

[Batman55]

Oh cool, been waiting for this!
What to play though! GTA, Avalon Code or Pokemon!? WHAT. A. MONTH.
I quit Diamond after 2 gyms so Pokemon is still kinda fresh for me.

Bah lol, I learnt my mistake with Diamond, pearl and Platinum (J), just chose Chimchar, leer twice and then tackle til it's dead.

tip to everyone, POWER LEVEL wherever possible it really is beneficial against your rival in the future. Gaining to level 10 before jubilife is a good idea too, and I will be doing that for sure.

in pokemanz, Quality over Quantity.

How many pokemon are in this?

The current running total is 493, but without trading or anything, on a single playthrough, you can only get just over 400.

Which is still a lot.

 

[sa1amandra]

Lol wonder why there isn't a ASK FOR THIS ROM AND BE BANNED, under the release info on the homepage
